Sixteen top-eight finishes in field events lifted the Lake Geneva Badger girls track and field team to the team title at the Greendale Panther Invite on Wednesday night.
Lauren Milligan picked up a pair of wins for the Badgers in the 300 hurdles (49.82) and the high jump (4 feet, 10 inches) and Cameron Jansen won discus with a throw of 121 feet, 2 inches, but the team racked up most of its points without event wins.
In addition to the winners, the Badgers had the fourth-place finisher in high jump; the second-, third- and fifth-place finishers in long jump; the fourth-, fifth- and seventh-place finishers in triple jump; the third- and fourth-place finishers in pole vault; the fourth- and seventh-place finishers in discus; and the third-, fourth- and fifth-place finishers in shot put.
The boys team had a pair of second-place finishes from Logan Meinel (110 hurdles, 15.65) and Tim DeVries (300 hurdles, 42.61) to highlight its third-place team finish in the meet.
